MAKING THEM APPLAUD.
Nero's Method Of EnfOrcing Approval OF
His singing.

Nero's Method Of EnfOrcing Approval OF
His singing.
Nero's ambition to be regarded - the
greatest musical celebrity of his age lei
him to undertake q starring tonr through
all the cities OF Greece. in the course OF
which he sang at the Olympic and Pythian
games in public competition with all COM
ers, and several times received the prizes.
The Greeks, being more critical or less
timid than his Roman subjects, were not SO
liberal of their applause as Nero could de-
sire. md to correct their omissions in this
particular, he devised a claquer system
which may we'll commend itself to aspi-
rants for theatrical honors at the present
day. II was on a gigantic scale. Five
THOUSAND claquers were stationed III varl-
Gus paris of the theater, and by many re-
hearsals were rendered proficient by giving
three distinct kinds Of applause (which
were to chime in at certain parts OF the IL
bretto previously marked by the emperor
himself). The first order Of applause con-
sisted in isolated shouts of Bravo" as If
proceeding from the spontaneous admira-
ton of separate individuals among the au-
dience. The second order was even more
artfully contrived, for it consisted in start
ing applause and then as suddenly repress-
ing it, then allowing it to break out anew,
but again restraining it; for which purpose
a certain contingent OF %claqueurs were told
off, who were called "the cold water men, "
whose duty it was to hush by Kisses and
expostulations the incipient clapping and
stamping of their fellows.-The Argosy.

A Distinguished Blacksmith.

Art circles nave to regret the death, at
the early age of IS, of Mr.. Alfred Newman,
the founder of the Old English Smithy in
Archer street, Haymarket, and a craftsman
of much talent. In the course of four
years Mr.. Newman, by his taste and en-
ergy, had not only raised his business TO a
high position in the commercial world, but
had done much TO stimulate the revival of
art iron work in the country. The pic
turesque arrangements of his smithy rem
dered it almost a place of fashionable re-
sort during the London season, and only
recently the Princess Beatrice paid it a
visit. Among Mr.. Newman's clients were
the Dukes of Westminster and Norfolk,
the Marquis of Northampton, Baroness
Anthony de Roihschild, Sir Coutts Lind
say, and Mr.. Alma Tadema.
The magnificent wrought-iron work ut
Eaton Hall was all turned out from his
forge. He was an Art COMMISSIONS and
expert for the Folkstone Exhibition and
author of several papers communicated to
the Society of Architects and similar
bodies. In the Jewish community, to
which he belonged, Mr.. New "a was dis
tinguished by interest in An o-Jewish his
tory and archnology.-St. III MED Gazette.

1he Gre.test Git He Ever naae.

II has been stated In some Of our exchanges
that Nj. II. II. Warner, Of Rochester, N. T., in
the last eight years, has, through his devotion
to science, built an astronomical observatory
ct an estimated value Of e10l, 600, and given
between e4,0J0 and 5000 in pr.2es for astro-
nomical discovery.
This is ali very we'll, IL Mr.. Warner seeks to
divert his energies in this channel But from
ak vi can hear among the people, II he never

remedy, Warmers safe cure, formerly known
~ Warmers safe kidney and liver cure, he
would he comforting the most practical and
fsr.reaching benefit that il is In the power OF
any one man to give the public.
1t is now conceded that he has the only
specific for k dney disease and uric acid in the
blood, and medical authorities OF candor agree
that il the blood is freed from uric acid by
that great remedy, and the kidneys are keptin
health, over ninety per cent OF human dis
eases disappears
The manufacturers evidently know, and il
they do not, We would like to tell them, Of the
unanimity Of public sentiment in favor OF
their great remedy; indeed, they seem to real
ixc this, when they say: III you do not be-
lieye the statements we make, ask your friends
and neighbors, what they think Of Warmers
safe cure" Such evidence Of confidence in
the established character and worth of their
preparation is unprecedented Unless they
know it has merit, and will do precisely what
they state, they would not dare give such adj
